Around 750 people commented on the online preview of the Real World Haskell book. As described by one of its co-authors, John Goerzen, in a recent interview to O’Reilly, the book introduces Haskell with real code, real examples and tips to exploit in a business environment. In his interview, Goerzen explains why, in his opinion, this language is worth learning; he provides insights into its specificities and addresses some issues that may be a source of reluctance.
